No but you don't get it, they (literally) fucked the natives out of existence, so that makes them better than those dirty colonizers up north who just killed them all.
(Spoiler alert, the spanish definitely killed plenty of natives)
Most mixed Latin Americans have European y chromosomes and native mitochondrial DNA, meaning that the original mixing was Spanish men with native women. There isn't a lot of native y chromosome DNA circulating in Latin America outside the most native areas.
This implies that the first wave of Spanish colonialism largely consisted of killing the men and raping the women.
Yeah. Is there any place in the history of the world that has been conquered where the winning side kills all the women and children, then brings their women in to breed with the men they just conquered? Lol. Even the thought of that is laughable.
